Totally. But from a fan’s perspective I want players for whom this is more than just a job. If it’s just about the money then fuck off elsewhere. We deserve more.

Hasn't been that way in decades, it's only seemed that way to us in the last few decades because someone's always paid the bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bury Similar position to us. Still managed to pull their tripe out for a cause. Got the reward that that sort of effort deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 If I put my notice in at work on Tuesday, I’d still be expected to turn up until that period was served. And rightly so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 1 hour ago, ErnestTurnip said: Go down that list of players johnnyrotten mentions and look at each one realistically. They're all league one players at best at this point in their careers and regardless of heart they wouldn't suddenly transform into something they ALF, Oz, Matthews, Wheater, Beevers, Lowe are lower championship all day long, they would be welcomed at millwall or barnsley. The likes of Taylor, Wildschut, Donaldson are div 2 at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if your job was in sales and suddenly you use the month's notice period to change your customers to your new employer's products? Not sure how this affects BWFC though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how this affects BWFC though The official explanation given to me was the expected reduction in my work rate and productivity :lol:! rational at the time because we worked like demons in the stores as there were only a few staff running the whole store at the time. nowadays there's fkin loads of em in there. if the same applied to BWFC, then would be a reason to not play them in my opinion. I was linking that point to Matt's post which seemed to suggest they should have been expected to play. And in your example, I would do that the month before, then hand my notice in, probably!

stimmau5 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 After one too many bank holidays bevvy's I can't help but close my eyes and hope for a decent sensible owner with fairly deep pockets looking for a long term project. I can see Gudni as chairman and Steinsson as head of recruitment/director of football and a young progressive and exciting manager that takes risks and tries to play at least semi entertaining football. I can see Vela back to his best and Connell with him in midfield doing damage. In reality I am absolutely shit scared of what will happen to my club, I know the chances of my dream coming true are less than 0.001% but I have to dream as the reality of what may be coming doesn't bear thinking about.

Would you though, if you weren't being paid, had an offer from elsewhere and there was a moderate risk of you getting injured and being left unemployed (and uninsured) for the foreseeable future?

Have a feeling he’s one whose handed his notice in PP mentioned a ‘couple’ who had done it. If he was just letting his contract run down they normally state the player has been released at the end of June one of the ones I hoped would stay actually. Seemed to excel at L1 level and seemed to really have the club at heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
